"We found there were actually 3 massive earthquakes one after another" |
|
Interview with scientist at Meteorological Agency. " We believe there is a 70% chance of a 7 point earthquake in the immediate future with 6 point aftershocks and more tsunamis", pointing out the problem that with power outages, there can be no tsunami warning sirens.
A Professor Yaki was also interviewed and said this was "a 1,000 year event".

3. I doubt it.. we rely too much on nuclear power.. |
|
There will "fixes" for what happened in Japan. Perhaps no more nukes in potential tsunami zones.. and beefed up backup generators to survive another "big one".
